The following maps, covering about three fourths of Kentucky's counties, are available. The dates of the maps range from 1990 to 1998 and are indicated. The files are GIF images ranging in size from about 256 kilobytes up to a little more than a megabyte. The names of virtually all of the places and roads marked on the maps are indexed in the Gazetteer.
